Meet the Guy Who Set Up Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries

Before the whirlwind courtship, the 20.5 carat engagement ring and talked-about prenup, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries were just strangers in the night -- until one of Humphries' teammates on the New Jersey Nets played matchmaker.

Despite that shock, the pro athlete told Us that the pair are an ideal match.

"They both fit each other. He is a good kid. He is from the country," he said of Minnesota native Humprhies. "So he kind of slows it down, and she is fast paced and has a lot of stuff going on -- so they kind of balance each other out."
